Good stoppage
Sad to see.
surely Evander does not need the money! no credit to Belfort beating up on old man, this sort of boxing is a joke. What next!!!!
Pathetic. First the Silva/Ortiz fiasco where Silva had to struggle to even carry Ortiz as long as he did and then this.
When Holyfield was the heavyweight champion, on the best day that he ever saw, Belfort wouldn’t even make a decent sparring partner for him.
Who sanctioned this mess and what fools threw away good money to watch this farce.
Nothing to see here folks, keep on movin’.
